Computational methods are a tool that is used in virtually all areas of science. This one-day workshop aims to entice Perimeter researchers from different areas to discuss the computational tools they use in their everyday work -- even when research fields differ, computational methods are often similar. At Perimeter, researchers employ a wide range of algorithms ranging from traditional number-crunching to novel graph processing methods, and these may be implemented either in large, collaborative codes, or in exploratory Maple/Mathematica/Python scripts.

We invite participants from all areas of research at Perimeter. Presentations should aim to give an overview of the computational methods they employ, without requiring in-depth knowledge of a particular field. This workshop also aims to create a user community for the new computing hardware available at Perimeter.

This workshop is intended for Perimeter residents only. Please contact Erik Schnetter if you plan to attend, indicating whether you intend to give a presentation.
